About:
Under the direction of Randi Andersen, the Charles A. Reinhard Early Childhood Center student advisory council hosted the United Through Reading project, which provides service members separated from their families the opportunity to be video recorded while reading a book for their children. After reading a book with someone at home, students wrote their name and title of their book on a star and collected a $1 donation. The stars were placed by SAC students on the wall of the school’s main corridor and $350 was raised and donated to the United Through Reading organization.
